The person you're replying IS the DRK. The underperforming player is the SGE they got paired with in their story, just letting you know.



I still personally think Pepsis is such an underwhelming option SGE have. It's 'enough' at best... but between Ixochole, Kerachole, Physis II, Holos, Panhaima, and Zoe+Pneuma, those are bonker-degree of free healing they can throw out before having to touch the Pepsi. Across my quite limited time dabbling with SGE (I play other 3 more often), I could probably name the amount of times I used Pepsis in emergencies in two hands. More often than not, waiting a few more seconds to wait for that Physis II + Ixochole are just as viable, albeit more efficient than doing the former.

But maybe I need more clown fiesta parties to have more say... lol.
Agreed I hardly or forget pepsi alot what you state is enough to handle mass damage. Pepsi should be reworked to be DT. one thing both sge and sch still fails to me vs old noct stance is crummy party shields. the single ones is beastly and chunky on crits but party ews. Miss aspect noct + celestial shield party stack least pani and hami though also burst heals so it makes up for something compared to succor.
